RECIPE

BUTTERNUT&BEETROOT CRISPS

Serves 8

Ingredients:

2 raw beetroots

1 butternut squash

1 tbsp flaked sea salt

1 tsp olive oil

A pinch of paprika

A pinch of chilli powder

Method:

Preheat your oven to 70C/fan 50C/gas low.

Peel the beetroots and butternut squash, then use a potato peeler to make very thin slices – the longer and wider the better. Discard the squash seeds and fibres. Place the slices on a baking tray, sprinkle with salt and drizzle the oil over them, then dust with the paprika and chilli powder.

Place in the oven and leave to dehydrate for about 1 hour 10 minutes until crisp – check every now and then towards the end of the time to ensure they don’t burn. Allow to cool before eating. Store in an airtight container.

TAPENADE

- a classic Mediterranean dip.

Serves 2

Ingredients:

4 tbsp black olives, pitted

1 tbsp capers

Grated zest and juice of 1 lemon

A sprig of fresh mint, leaves picked

A handful of fresh coriander

A handful of fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves

1 garlic clove

1 tbsp olive oil

A pinch of flaked sea salt

Method:

Place all the ingredients into a blender and blitz for 20-30 seconds. This will result in a course texture so if you would prefer it to be smoother, blitz for a little longer.

Transfer to a bowl for serving include your favourite veg crisps [see above]
